Ala. Code § 22-21-326: Securities Issued Under Article as Legal Investments.

Securities issued under the provisions of this article are hereby made legal investments for savings banks and insurance companies organized under the laws of the state. Unless otherwise directed by the court having jurisdiction thereof or the document that is the source of authority, a trustee, executor, administrator, guardian or one acting in any other fiduciary capacity may, in addition to any other investment powers conferred by law and with the exercise of reasonable business prudence, invest trust funds in securities of an authority. The governing body of any authorizing subdivision (or any county or municipality in which any health care facilities of an authority may be situated) is authorized, in its discretion, to invest in securities of such authority any idle or surplus money held in its treasury which is not otherwise earmarked or pledged.
